Metaphysical
and psychic phenomena have long existed on the fringes of conventional science
and academia. ESP, Clairvoyance, Telekinesis and Astral traveling have all been
relegated to the back seat of mainstream, accepted belief systems in spite of
an extensive mention of these practices down the ages, across myriad cultures.
It has always been challenging for practitioners of the science to be validated
by the prevailing status quo.
That
however changed in 1995 when the CIA declassified a top secret program that had
been training individuals in the esoteric science of 'Remote Viewing' in which,
it was claimed, people were able to envision ongoing activities in distant
places and future events.
Although
reminiscent of a Sci-Fi yarn, Remote viewing was tested and deployed under
rigorous scientific conditions to obtain data about foreign espionage
activities, counter terrorism efforts, secret military bases abroad and hidden
missiles. It recognized the inherent psychic potential in humans and attempted
to harness these special faculties or 'powers' for the purposes of intelligence
gathering, often of a vital nature.
The
initial testing was done at the Stanford Research Institute (SRI) where
extensive investigations were carried out into the human mind's capacity to
transcend all bounds of time and space. SRI's research was supported by the CIA
and other government agencies for over two decades.
Russell
Targ, Hal Puthoff and Ingo Swann were the original founders of this once-secret
program. Their task was to learn to understand psychic abilities, and to use
these abilities to gather information about the Soviet Union during the Cold
War. They found from years of experience that people can quickly learn to do
remote viewing, and can frequently incorporate this direct knowing of the world
-- both present and future -- into their lives.
They
were the original 'Psi Spies' named after the title of Jim Marrs' exhaustive
study of the phenomenon. The project produced some remarkable results. Among
them were detailed renderings of secret Soviet bases, the whereabouts of Red
Brigade terrorism hostages in Italy, location of victims in the Israeli hostage
crisis, locations of Scud missiles during the first Gulf War and even the
impending attack on the Twin Towers in NY! (done by a private contractor and
ignored until after the event). The program eventually came to be called
'Operation Stargate'.
The
initial media flurry (Ted Koppel's Nightline, ABC, The Washington Post, The New
York Times, etc.) that surrounded the declassification in 1995 uncovered some
surprising details. The names that surfaced at the time were of Ingo Swann, who
initially helmed the project, Dr.Russell Targ, Pat Price, Dr. Hal Puthoff,
Joseph McMoneagle and others, an interesting group comprised of respected
senior military personnel, path breaking scientists and academic luminaries. On
ABC's Nightline, one of the operatives, Joe McMoneagle was put to the test by
none other than Ted Koppel. He was able to prove the authenticity of the system
with flying colors.
Remote
viewers can often contact, experience and describe a hidden object, or a remote
natural or architectural site, based on the presence of a cooperative person at
the distant location, or when given geographical coordinates, or some other
target demarcation -- which they call an 'address'. Shape, form and color are described much more
reliably than the target's name, function, or other analytical information. In
addition to vivid visual imagery, viewers sometimes describe associated
feelings, sounds, smells and even electrical or magnetic fields. Blueprint accuracy has occasionally been achieved
in these double-blind experiments, and reliability in a series can be as high
as 80 per cent.
Case
Studies
In
1984 Targ organized a pair of successful 10,000-mile remote viewing experiments
between Moscow and San Francisco with famed Russian healer Djuna
Davitashvili. Djuna's task was to
describe where a colleague would be hiding in San Francisco. She had to focus
her attention ten thousand miles to the west and two hours into the future to
correctly describe his location. These experiments were performed under the
auspices and control of the USSR Academy of Sciences. Djuna hit the mark on all counts and the
experiment was declared a resounding success.
Ten
years earlier, in 1974, Russell Targ and his colleague Hal Puthoff carried out
a demonstration of psychic abilities for the CIA. Pat Price, a retired police
commissioner, described the inside and outside of a secret Soviet weapons
laboratory in the far reaches of Siberia -- given only the geographical
coordinates of latitude and longitude for a reference. (That is, with no on-
site cooperation.) This trial was such a stunning success that they were forced
to undergo a formal Congressional investigation to determine if there had been
a breach in National Security. Of course, none was ever found, and the
government supported them for another fifteen years.
Data
from these formal and controlled SRI investigations were highly statistically
significant (thousands of times greater than chance expectation), and have been
published in the world's most prestigious journals, such as Nature, The
Proceedings of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, and The
Proceedings of the American Academy of Sciences. The twenty years of remote
viewing research conducted for the CIA is outlined in ‘Miracles of Mind:
Exploring Non-local Consciousness and Spiritual Healing', co-authored by Targ
and Katra.
Recent
research in areas as different as distant healing and quantum physics are in
agreement with the oldest spiritual teachings of the sages of India, who taught
that "separation is an illusion." The powers we are discovering now
are described by Rishis as 'Siddhis', or fruits of deep penance and arcane
Yogic techniques, verbally transmitted, only known to inner circles.
The
military and institutional exploitation of this timeless phenomenon is
alarming. It is being harnessed by world governments in a game of cosmic
brinkmanship, none of whom can possibly know the complete ramifications of
unleashing such latently devastating forces without comprehending the holistic
nature of the universe and interconnectedness of all life.
What
is remarkable however is the fact that the cat is out of the bag finally with
regard to parapsychology, metaphysics and the occult. The so-called
'mainstream' has not only recognized the stunning potential of psychic energy
but has gone so far as to harness it for territorial one-upmanship. The human
race only needs to realize the vast reserves of raw power that it has at its
disposal to effect profound and genuine transformation of the human condition on
a global scale.
